It has to do with the investigation into those who allegedly incited public violence through social media and other platforms during the riots last year.
Twenty-two other suspects were arrested and appeared in court on Friday, where they were granted R3 000 bail.
They all face charges of conspiracy to commit public violence, incitement to commit public violence and incitement to commit arson.
